The Tucson Cornelia and Gila Bend railroad cuts a straight line through this arid landscape, connecting the remote reaches of Maricopa and Pima counties during the late 1950s. The terrain is defined by the stark elevations of the Sauceda Mts and the Crater Mountains, which give way to the broad expanse of Childs Valley. Water sources, while sparse, are meticulously noted, including the curiously named Well (that Johnny dug), Slovan Well, and Black Gap Well.
